Story

Second Nature Home™ is a retail space entirely focused on eco-friendly, organic products for the home—helping you transform your home into a natural sanctuary. The shop offers one-stop eco-shopping with distinctive, sustainable products—a unique mix of locally-sourced home essentials and curated decorative arts.

The shop also provides the Trout Lake/Cedar Cottage neighbourhood with a refilling system for laundry soaps, shampoo, and other cleaning and personal products, reducing the negative environmental impact of plastic bottle manufacturing. In response to growing demands for local and ‘Made in Canada’ product sourcing, Second Nature Home offers personalized shopping, and custom gift baskets celebrating new babies, new homes, personal milestones, and special occasions with organic products from local suppliers and artisans. We can offer zero packaging and giftwrapping options such as handcrafted fabrics, baskets, boxes and jars, along with paper bag options.

Second Nature Home’s triple bottomline builds locals jobs, enhances community through its Clean for a Cause™ school fundraising program and positively impacts the local environment and awareness-raising partnerships.

As a socially responsible company, Second Nature provides valuable skills development opportunities and mentoring for immigrant women, and supports community ecological activity. Conveniently situated on Commercial Street, the store is easily accessible by transit, bicycle or on foot, with ample local parking. Our space is easy to navigate with a stroller, and we welcome persons with special accessibility needs.
